i used to put hours on games but nowadays all i play in gta. i can't even get into a game without getting bored after 5 minutes. i like gta because of the freedom. is it me or is it the industry not caring anymore?

so since IW decided to be so awfully obnoxious I was thinking what if a bunch of us autists got in a private match and made a parody machinima of the happening and the subsequent looting. we have the superstore map we can do it on, maybe someone with the new police skin can play the cop and we could all upload it somewhere for shits and giggles. i'm just a yuropoor gamer and everywhere I look there's that fucking virtue signaling bullshit. it has fully infested our games now. time to do something about it.

PS5 will now be voice locked. You have to repeat "black lives matter" 5 times as a mantra to unlock the console. You will also have to kneel for 1 full minute to bypass the 2nd security measure. Everyone that isn't white will be automatically verified, and placed at the front of all preorders and online queues.

I think this is one of the many underappreciated features that this game provides. I find most people just judge a game based on a single playthrough instead of actually learning to play well. Can we get an SA2 thread going? For the first time I'm actually playing the game rather than just getting to the end. It feels great. It's amazing how much I've missed out when I was a kid.

>Best game of one the best games on one of the best selling family of consoles ever

>creator felt proud enough in it to dedicate a fun gimmick emulating the games dialogue in a stage and add 2 characters from it to smash.

>Mixed reviews and feedback due to having unconventional controls

Has there ever been a game more scammed out of having massive praise.

You can almost never bring the game up without one retard who's not played it going on about how weren't the controls really awkward when the only people who think that are soy boys who can't hold 230 grams of plastic.

OoT is the most overrated game of all time and if you disagree then you're close minded.

After replaying Ocarina of Time start to finish during this hoax, I can safely say that OOT is not what numale soyboys think it is when compared to other games of the time, such as Majora's Mask or even Half-Life, which came out in the same year! The aiming sucks. Trying to aim with the Nintendo 64 controller while the camera glitches into the wall every five seconds when other games of the 90s don't suffer from that problem is embarrassing. Side quests are non existent (no, playing the bombchu mini game and collecting gold skulltulas are NOT considered side quests) and should be considered a requirement if you're calling an action adventure game the greatest video game of all time. OoT suffers from being the most played game by Twitter soyboys and redditors when they were growing up and because of that, any criticism given towards the game is basically a sin to these people. There is nothing special about that game other than a fuckton of people played it.

>Simon Riley had a very traumatic childhood while growing up in Manchester, England because of his heartless father.

>On most days, his father brought dangerous animals back and taunted him with them, even going so far to force him to kiss a snake or threaten to kill him with them. When he and his younger brother Tommy got older, Tommy would always wear a skull-mask at night to scare Simon.

>Simon's father would sometimes take him to the Bone Lickers concerts. At one concert, his father made him laugh at the death of a prostitute who was addicted to drugs.

>joined the military after 9/11 and recruited in SAS after a tour in Afghanistan

show me your goods, anon, let's see what's under that chest. I need a good FFMPEG command line option to have a video with decent quality while not making the file bloated as fuck, all I want is for it to be small enough for jewtube quality videos, but not low enough to get raped by jewtubes compression, how is bitchute compression by the way? I hope it does good, if so, I'll move onto that, I mainly want to do stuff other people request.

I plan to record more of this emulator and others, if you have any vidya requests let me know. I'm currently downloading the entire ps2 library, done with goyimcube, will download some 7th gen games that are locked down to their platform like viva painyatta. Now give me your booty and I'll give you mine.

4. Encrypt your uploads with a password, key, or generator. Rename the files something random, even their checksums. Maybe even pad files to the nearest GB or so to confuse bots.

5. If your connection is stable, it is extremely advisable to self host using anonymity tools like Freenet, I2P, Gnunet, distributed NNTP or MixMinion/Mixmaster.

Volafile volafile.org/r/vg

1. Before uploading a batch of miscellaneous files (e.g images and music), be sure they are unique enough to stand on their own and that you ask for the majority's consensus whether to upload the files individually.

2. Upload 5 files and then zip the rest if the dump is larger then 6-7 files. Music Albums exceeding 5 files are to be zipped.

3. When uploading .torrent, either add them to the a zip of the game or just don’t upload those misc files. Properly label files so that they can be identified without asking someone else.

4. For lewd stuff with filenames like RJ74765, either add a .txt linking to the contents on a website or just add the title to the .txt (e.g. "BIG BOOTY WOMEN SIT ON SHOTA FACE (RJ34734)").

5. You can filter files by file type (.txt, .rar, etc) or search the file list with the bar hidden by the filter files button.

a. When in doubt, archive as a single [or split if too large], then upload.

Why do these systems despite their disproportionate sale numbers to other Nintendo hardware lack in the software department? Wouldn't more sales result in more games? But the drought on these systems is real. Why do you suppose that is?

Why do I have such horrible luck in every game I play? For example, if an attack has a 99% chance of hitting, I’ll miss 3+ times in a row. I’m just always getting fucked, I can’t take it. Please tell I’m not alone

The bad: they are /v/ga-tier corporate cock sucking scum that censors content they were sent, including a game called 'No More Niggers 4', because they are afraid of controversy. Oh, and they will ban you if you bring it up.

They are supposed to have twitch and youtube streams, but can't be bothered to post them.

Talk anything Yakuza. How do you feel about the combat change in Yakuza 7? Personally I think it's an odd thing to do this late in the series and turn-based doesn't really feel as "action-y" as the beat em up style Yakuza previously had, despite Yakuza 7 having brutal and flashy moves. Also it became wacky as fuck. Sure you can say Yakuza always had a wacky humorous side to it, but that was mostly contained to the side-content. In Yakuza 7 you have a party and in that party includes a nerdy dude and a woman who beat up on street thugs and other Yakuza. They could also fucking summon shit like it's fucking Final Fantasy. I mean you could say the story doesn't acknowledge that but it's still ridiculous. With all this being said I'm still gonna get the game and the mini-games look especially fun this time.

Port: 64738

Join the Mumble server for Squid Cephalopod Squid Squad multiplayer fun. Peak times are 9pm - 12am Eastern Time, Friday/Saturday/Sunday. Banned/pirate users and those not paying for online are welcome to join us for Splatoon 2 LAN parties.

https://lan-play.com/ - Lets you participate in private LAN matches and Salmon Run, even if you aren't paying for online or are running homebrew. Joining the mumble server is recommended, as we can better coordinate LAN matches there.

Hello /v/. I am currently in the market for a new gaming mouse, as my old one, a Z-7900 that served me faithfully for 3 years, has started to double click on me. Any suggestions? I'm probably just going to get another Z-7900 if I can't find something better.

Pros of the Z-7900, which I would like to keep:

>Has some weight to it

>Lots of freely programmable buttons

>DPI switcher

>Ergonomic shape

>$25 price point

Cons that I would consider buying a different mouse if they corrected:

>Thumb button configuration is somewhat awkward, meaning it's easy to fat-finger or miss some of them

>Sega is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year with another retro console, and it looks like it might be the tiniest yet. The Game Gear Micro is a revival of Sega’s 8-bit handheld system that tried (and failed) to overcome Nintendo’s Game Boy.

>More news is set to drop later today via Japanese gaming news outlet Famitsu. The promo shots show that the system will unsurprisingly run at least one of the (pretty good!) Game Gear Sonic the Hedgehog titles.

>An image initially hidden in the Game Gear Micro landing page also revealed that the system will come in four colors — black, blue, yellow, and red — and be released in Japan on October 6th this year for 4,980 yen, or about $46.

Well, they sure trolled us good. People were speculating the reveal would be about a Dreamcast Mini or a new Sega console, but instead they gave us an ancient handheld that has no more than 10 good games at best.

Give me some JRPGs with a lot of sidequests and hidden stuff. It feels like I've played all the major ones: Paper Mario: TTYD, Skies of arcadia, Tales of Eternia, FF6 and FF5, Star ocean 2 to name a few.

Subject. This is a thread for asking a question that does not need it's own thread like

>What are some games that X?

>Asking for opinions on a game

>What are some games where I can Y?

>A hind?

And so on.

I'll start, what are some games that are set in religious fantasy settings, where you're playing some divinely powered creature sent to go fuck up demons, such as Valdis Story, the Darksiders game or Dood Eternal(since I know someone will mention it if I don't)?

>Developer Sprite (the heads behinds Aokana -Four Rhythms Across the Blue-) announced that they're coming back, after announcing suspension of operations in 2018, as Sprite/S-WORKS. They are looking at releasing Aokana EXTRA2, but they'll look at the current situation for now. More news to come on Jan 2020.

>MangaGamer made an appearance at Anime NYC with an hour-long panel, during which they announced two upcoming visual novels: Dizzy Hearts Chapter 1, and Bokuten - Why I Became an Angel, as well as an OVA to celebrate the anniversary of OVERDRIVE.

>Sekai Project has announced that the Kickstarter for the VisualArts Key developed visual novel Rewrite+ has concluded and is successful. Meaning, the game will be headed west on PC.

>The crowdfunding project has secured $207,000 and was asking $180,000 to have the game released in the west. Now fans will need to play the waiting game as the publisher works on the localization of title. Being that the project is a large undertaking we might not hear of an update until some time in 2020.

>Pureworks is making their first visual novel on Kickstarter called White Wings which uses an e-mote animation style (https://emote.mtwo.co.jp/works/). The story is about "love and humanity, and it focuses on a slightly warped love triange". Also contains themes such as: broken families, bullying, and separation. With 44 days to go, $2,837 of $17,000 has been pledged at of this writing.

I FOUND THE SMOKING GUN TENCENT AND CHINA CAUSED SOYNY'S CENSORSHIP TENCENT WAS ALSO MESSING WITH SE

I FOUND THE SMOKING GUN

TENCENT AND CHINA CAUSED SOYNY'S CENSORSHIP

TENCENT WAS ALSO MESSING WITH SENRANS FROM THE START

I know this is more something for the GG thread, but I don't think anyone will disagree about what I'm about to reveal being significant enough to warrant its own separate thread.

The news about Tencent and Marvelous both depressed me and seriously pissed me off. But reading over one of the articles I noticed an interesting tidbit in it which mentioned in passing that Marvelous and Tencent had cooperated before (I will bring this up in the infodump). This set off alarm bells in my head and kicked my digging autism into high gear. I spent the past few days going through my materials, searching for the information that fills the gaps, and assembling a timeline and paper trail to piece together a coherent motive behind Sony and Marvelous' actions over the past two years.

Also, there is an extremely important detail near the end of my dump that you need to pay very close attention to. Believe me, you'll know exactly which detail that is when you get to it.

Wurm Unlimited is an autistic sandbox where you grind skills endlessly to build castles and run from trolls. Breed horses, smith weapons, praise gods for dark powers, and drown trying to cross a river. This time around we're raiding a normalfag serb, https://awakening.spirangle.net/

Server Features

<Basics

>1x/1x, the gameplay is a lot slower this time around, get ready for maximum /comfy/

>Its normalfag city, we're using our own IRC

>Server is PVE with opt in PVP (we have plans to bait the natives into pvp, already stolen a few things and started trouble)

>New PVP map coming soon(tm) should add more pvp options (will be free for all instead of flagged)

>if you are new get ready to read the wiki, but we've already begun to set up shop and can help new players

<Economy

>No bounty from kills, but every item(resource) in the game can be bought and sold to merchant npcs

>Instead of mindlessly killing goblins you need to butcher corpses/harvest resources/manage logistics of hauling goods to get cash

>finished products/crafted goods can also be sold to npcs for cash, so crafters can make money too

>trade with the natives for the things you can't/don't want to craft yourself

<Priests/Magic

>normal system (4 priests/classes) replaced with custom system. Restrictions are much more relaxed and there are 10 gods to choose from

>restrictions are so relaxed theres no reason to NOT be a priest, be sure to check the website for documentation on each priests spells/powers

<Other notes

>for priests, its best to start in the nation associated with the god you want to priest, we can convert you after you unlock priest

>For kingdoms, we're all on Cel, but have a few players in Sho that plan on converting

>Once you join the server jump in IRC and we can get you a /v/illage invite

>IRC: open console, type IRC, in the new chat tab that opens type /join #wurmbro

>new players are advised to spend some time in the starter town before trekking out to the /v/illage, as the starter towns have indestructible training dummies for early fighting gains

So far we've stolen a few horses, built a temporary fort(shack), cultivated some farmland, and begun training our fighting skills. We have beds up for sleep bonus and a blacksmith to get you some better starting tools.

So I've been "inspired" by the efforts of certain other people, and I've taken up the challenge of determining if Pokemon Red is beatable with any given unevolved pokemon using no items. Basically, the format is the same as most challenges of this nature are nowadays:

>The game starts with the selected pokemon as a starter: For sake of challenge, I'll attempt to pick the hardest path

>Only the selected pokemon is usable in battle: Other pokemon are usable outside of battle

>No items are allowed to be used in battle, only outside

>No Missingno-tier glitches: Badge glitch is fair game though

Thankfully, some of the work has already been done on this subject, so I don't have to try with the following pokemon:

Cannot complete challenge, gets walled at Lavender Tower due to lack of non-Normal moves. Was able to complete the rest of the accessible content (Erika, Rocket Hideout Giovanni, Fighting Dojo) at level 56. May be possible to do them slightly lower with good luck.

Is there any chance Animal crossing will be the next game series that will inspire a lot of clones? New horizon already outsold multiple games with bigger budgets. Doom external, resident evil 3 remake and final fantasy 7 remake. Also after battle Royale what’s going to be the next trend gameplay genre Devs and publishers will copy?

Fullderp is a game where one of us declares himself the champ and takes a ragtag team of six Pokémon assembled by anons into an online competitive Pokémon battling simulator.

To quote one of Showdown's mods…

>@MacChaeger: None of these people are youtubers

>@MacChaeger: They impersonate verlis to to gain notoriety and attract new members

>@MacChaeger: These people regularly trick others into getting locked

>@MacChaeger: this is the single most toxic group of players on PS

How does it work?

When the current champ calls "new champ", the first poster to claim it is our champ. The first six legal Pokémon suggested once champ has been claimed or "new team" has been called will be the team our champ uses to battle.

Suggesters are not to make multiple suggestions for a team unless 15 minutes have passed since their last suggestion, or unless the champ specifically asks for resuggests.

The champ will be battling in Gen 8 Natdex OU unless he specifies otherwise.

Can I give the champ something?

If we've got a champ, feel free to come in and watch and give him something when he calls for a new team. No experience necessary, and everything's done in-browser.

——————————————————————

The Rules:

Failure to follow the rules will result in IMPEACHMENT and/or BULLYING.

1. The champ cannot forfeit or intentionally throw a match.

2. The champ may not edit a set without the suggester's permission.

3. All Pokémon must be nicknamed.

4. The champ is not allowed to timer stall.

5. If someone resuggests before 15 minutes have passed since their last suggest, the champ must ignore it.

6. The champ should replace resuggests with fresh suggests that come in later.

7. Don't make the new thread until the old one is on Page 13, or near the post limit of 750.

Are there any JRPGs around, whose English translations aren't Ted Woolsey-style hackjobs that randomly change things about the plot, characters, and the names cause muh western sensibilities and muh cultural differences, and instead are faithful to the Japanese script? Fan translations are fine, too.

Post vidya music that gets your blood pumping. I'm making another vidya music collection just for adrenaline inducing video game music. Covers, arranges, remixes, and Visual Novel music are all fine. When the thread is about to die or is in bump lock, I'll collect all the music and post it here and in the Share Thread.

Make sure to type the game name and song name in the filename of webms/mp4s or next to Youtube/Invidio/Yewtu.be links. If the link dies or thumbnail goes missing for some reason. I won't be able to find the song you posted and add it to the list.

Fuck people who make these faggy posts in Splatoon 2. BLM are fuckin' violent cuntfaggots that loot shit and destroy property, fuck them and fuck people who post about shit like it in video games where it doesn't fuckin' belong.

I know of Wurm and City of Heroes since those threads are still on the catalog. I don't play Wurm but I actually have played City of Heroes with a couple of you anons when it first came out to the public on leandro's server. That was actually an alright experience with no drama or any shit like it. It was pretty chill running team missions late at night. What are some other MMOs you've guys played with each other? I'm pretty sure FFXIV was also one but I've heard of some drama in it, not sure about the whole story of that. Reason I'm making this thread is because I'm just curious about the stories some of you might share about playing with people from here, could be negative or positive. Also I've been considering playing some random old private server MMO for the hell of it and see if other anons would want to talk about it, but I haven't decided on what MMO it would be and if some anons would want to play together. Was thinking of a Phantasy Star Online server but I'd also want the game to be decently populated.

What are you crawling? Personally I love Caves of Qud, the amount of stuff you can find, skills and mutations among other things, makes it a really fun experience. Sure, you're pretty much fighting koblods armed with bronze daggers in the beginning, but it isn't long before you can start carrying around modified sniper rifles and teleporter units. It's also fairly easy to savescum if you are a filthy casual like me.

SU/Requiem and Horizon are the most developed overhaul mod(pack)s for these two Bethesda Games, which focus on gameplay and don't create a standalone story, while just using the engine of the game. Like Enderal for example.

I have stuttering issues with Fallout, which is why I only played Skyrim Ulimate. My experience so far:

>make sure to replace the shitty paper mod it wants you to install, if the most popular mod in Oblivion was to add some colour and topography to the map, then there is no reason to go back to shitty parchment maps with bugged, floating map markers

>turn the iNeed, Frostfall and Bathing settings to the lowest possible, it's not immersive if a Nord isn't comfortable bare-chested in Skyrim on a mild sunny day

>there is an option missing in Requiem to simulate a class system in previous elder scrolls game, where you start out competent in some skills, this is basically more immersive for a complete zero start, where you work yourself up from nothing

>very refreshing to see everyone getting one-shotted by your two-handed weapons, when you come from Skyrim Legendary Difficulty, sadly only Russian Streamers do videos about Requiem at legendary difficulty (10/400% damage dealt/received difficulty)

>some inconsistency compared to games like Fallout, which come with features like smelting down useless items right out of the gate, the various mods in Skyrim Ultimate don't interact as well as Fallout, like you can't smelt down a steelplate helm with a furhood attached to it, because it only recognises regular steel helms as being able to melt down

Skyrim Ultimate was kinda boring in the beginning. I haven't really started to play yet, because it's so hard to make a profit with Alchemy. I even used a perk point in Speech, because someone said otherwise all prices are ridiculously expensive to create a better buy ingredients -> brew potions -> sell potions loop, but I mostly get even, while accumulating lots of useless ingredients.

Horizon seems interesting, but sadly literally not a single Youtuber, except one guy, is playing it. I don't know why people don't like playing these modpacks as much. No one is doing a proper hardcore playthrough with them.

>"And this sort of situation disproportionately affects a certain percentage of the population."

>"…systemic injustice and racism that has been pervading our country for the past 50, 100, 200 years. This is a problem that is deeply rooted in our government and in our communities and in these systems that are supposed to help our fellow man. And it is a problem that needs to be rooted out at every turn."

>"…prejudice and injustice and racism runs very deep…"

In the video, Mark Edward Fischbach links to Campaign Zero, a BLM charity.

What's your take on this? Is Markicock in the right for supporting the charity? Or is Pozziplier in the wrong for jumping to conclusions on the whole case?

/v/ Remember when game journalists said Facebook games like FarmVille, mafia wars and weed wars were supposed to be the future of the video game industry? I still recall GameStop telling readers to sign up for Social media sites like Facebook for free video games.

Well, at least it's not a pachinko machine. They already did that before. Not much but it might lead to confirmation of the rumors of new Silent Hill games. As long as it's not done in-house as we've seen from what they did to Contra and Metal Gear, I think a new game published by them and licensed out to another company could turn out good. Do you think that Silent Hill can be great again?

For whatever reason, invidious website link hasn't worked for a while so I couldn't preview if it works or not so you only get a youtube link this time if you want to see the Dead by Daylight gameplay with its Silent Hill skin.

Fortunately, PSP emulation is fantastic, being able to run easily even on smartphones. With a little know-how, you should also be able to get multiplayer working.

>My computer is pretty shitty. I don't know if I can ru-

You can run PPSSPP.

>So what do I need then?

All you need is a computer, PPSSPP, the linked ISO, a gamepad preferably, and access to your router. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO YOUR ROUTER THEN IT'S VERY LIKELY YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO PLAY.

>Why Portable 3rd?

Portable 3rd is good for beginners as its a little less clunky, far prettier, and has some quality of life changes to make organization and management easier. If you do start with this and can't read Japanese, though, you will be wanting to check the wiki for and asking for help in this thread to explain certain things. It only has a partial English translation.

The default settings in the most recent release of PPSSPP should be enough, but just make sure that you have networking enabled, the ad hoc server is myneighborsushicat.com, port offset is zero, and that the virtual MAC address has been randomized, which you can do by clicking on it a few times. PPSSPP should also have a firewall exemption.

The more challenging aspect is that you will most likely have to configure your router for the online component to work, but it's still fairly easy to get working. You'll have to log into your router, which can be done by putting 192.168.1.1 into your browser. You'll want to either enable DMZ if you have it or forward UDP port 10000 and TCP ports 20001 to 20004 to whatever internal IP address is assigned to your computer.

The only option within the game itself is whether you manually or automatically select the room you want to join. Set this to manual, which it should be by default.

Check what internal IP address is assigned to your computer. If you are port forwarding and your router reset, it may have reassigned you a different one.

>I loaded a savestate and now I can't get back in!

Restart the emulator.

>I can't connect at all!

Use a packet analyzer like Wireshark and add the filter udp.port == 10000 || tcp.dstport >= 20001 and tcp.dstport <= 20004 to see if you're connecting to the IP addresses of other players at all. It's also advised to turn off your VPN if you have one as that might interfere. If you want a more detailed explanation of the ports, check the following link.

It's an anti-piracy measure I think, so you might need to drop these PSID files in you PAUTH folder, which is under memstick in your PPSSPP directory. I don't know which one decodes P3rd, but you can just dump everything in.

>I have Portable 3rd, but I can't play with others!

Make sure you use the version I have linked. This is a special version that uses PS3 assets and can't be found anywhere else reasonably.

I've been refreshing the catalog every damn day for the past two weeks waiting for fighting game general to pop up and I got tired of waiting and I don't have the copypasta so someone else post it if you want.

How did Yume nikki become known? Do you know, or can you see somewhere, what the first 2chan thread was where Kikiyama mentioned the game? Is there somewhere on the internet where Kikiyama presented his game that June 2004?

>“Crucible” is an attempt to fuse the chaos of a hero shooter with the pacing and strategy of a multiplayer online battle arena, like “League of Legends.” And much like “Fortnite” distilled the satisfaction of loot grinds to a single match.

>Every game mode will feature planetary threats, living up to the promise Bioware’s “Anthem” never met. In “Crucible,” certain stage events could happen that could tip the scales of the game.

>As a setting, the planet Crucible is as vibrant and colorful as any of the interstellar maps we’ve gotten in other games like “Destiny,” just bigger and wider to accommodate the enemies and the superpowers. The game’s map size seems to be a compromise between the arenas in “Destiny” (in a mode also called “Crucible”) and Halo’s Big Team Battle maps.

>“From a gamer standpoint, being able to read the situation is something we took seriously,” Stansell said. “But it also works in terms of streaming, being able to quickly understand from a watchability standpoint. We wanted to create characters that were earnest, someone the audience could connect to.”

>“Crucible” is a standout in character animation, even compared to Blizzard’s celebrated work in games like “Overwatch.” Facial animations on Rahi, a South Asian short-range player equipped with lasers, tell stories about his friendship with his robo-buddy Brother, and how they seem to have a symbiotic, dependent relationship.

Didn't see a thread in the catalog, really feel like playing something a bit more gritty, hopefully with more Lovecraftian/paranormal themes. I have already played F.E.A.R and Quake not a horror game technically but with horror elemetns and know of Call of Cthulhu.

Listen, mods, before you delete this thread I'd like to say that /v/ desperately needs more activity. You can only make so many posts to the generals you use that go unreplied to before you have to start samefagging or doubleposting. A shitposting thread could help with that.

Basic premise: shitpost about any games you like. Post webms, post memes, post porn, post greentexts, satire gaming and the industry, get angry at retarded casuals, post whatever the fuck you'd like as long as it's vidya related.

One of my favorite passtimes is listening to a creepypasta/scary internet story reading on Jewtube in the background while playing vidya that doesn't require much thought or concentration.

I got to thinking. Are there any good vidya creepypastas that aren't just Godzilla NES (disregarding the badly-made-anime-tier ending), Ben Drowned, etc. that have been talked about to no end? I'm not really sure how well you could do it nowadays considering that you have to make it have some sort of connection to the real world (lest you just make an edgy fanfiction) or do it in some sort of "gotcha!" twist like Xorax did.

EA went full fucking mask off and hired a former Stasi agent for their "against fascists in gaming" or whatever the their nonsensical new scheme is to route out more wrong thinkers in game development/communities.

Just finished Trails in the Sky 3rd and really enjoyed it. Apparently Rean's games suck so all I have to look forward too is the Crossbell games. Is there an English translation that isn't filled with retarded memes (bruh moment etc.)? I can't see any other translation on nyaa besides the geofront one.

And if anyone has any tips for running them in wine, the sky games ran perfectly after following the instruction on winedb but the crossbell games aren't listed there.

I could have sworn there was one up already. Anyone get back into the game now that the patch/expansion is out?

>play for a while

>bugs come tunneling into my world

>pft, my guys are all geared up by now, I can take 'em

<I couldn't take 'em

On the bright side I only lost one guy since I had just got two recruits that stayed out of combat and were able to rescue everyone. I wouldn't have lost even the one guy except he collapsed before reaching the hospital and I didn't notice until he had less than an hour left to live.

/int/craft - a 4chan minecraft server populated by the autists over on /int/ and various other boards at this point. We've got some nice custom plugins that add some nice period weapons to the game, along with some new mechanics for towny, and a brewing plugin. Right now the mod team are developing ships to be used on trade and shore bombardment.

You can join any nation that existed in Europe or North Africa at the time of 1700, the map is a crop of the North Atlantic, America will be opened up shortly after launch. Its not a small map and most nations are happy to accept more people as launch approaches. The new world particularly needs more people to settle there, is a vast area with lots of good resources, like corn and gold.

A wiki for how the new nodes plugin works is down below, its similar to towny, specifically in its war mechanics

Learn the Kana. Start with Hiragana and then move on to Katakana. Yes, you need both, and yes stroke order is important. Use Realkana or Kana Invaders for spaced repetition. Alternatively, you can use the Anki deck, but I'd recommend the first two. Tae Kim has a Kana diagram on his website, and you can use KanjiVG for pretty much any character.

>Alright, I know the Kana. Now what?

You have to learn vocabulary and grammar in order to speak and understand the language. Studying both simultaneously will get you understanding things faster. Vocabulary can be learned through just studying words, although some people like studying kanji on their own too. There are grammar guides such as Tae Kim that can get you started quickly, but they won't have everything you need so consult multiple sources as you go.

>Well this is great and everything, but I still need more help

Ask in this thread.

Threadly reminder:

YOU CAN LEARN JAPANESE

Don't come to tell us about Duolingo, we know that it exists and it is generally frowned upon for using a contrascientific new-aged hippie didactic philosophy, and is designed feel as effortless as possible, even at the expense of actually learning anything.

<This is a .zip file with a number of Anki decks and a number of books on grammar, including Japanese the Manga Way, Tae Kim's guide to Japanese Grammar, Remembering the Kanji vol 1, 2 and 3 (mnemonic exercises), A Dictionary of basic, intermediate, and advanced Japanese grammar, An Anki deck that contains the Visualizing Japanese Grammar video series, a deck for Kana, a deck for Kanji and vocab, and a deck version of the DoJG book

Hard to believe it but SJ is now ten years old. To a T almost anyone interested in SMT says they like SJ, so anon do you have any good fun memories of playing it? Similarly, P2EP is going to be 20 this summer, unlikely to get any recognition from atlus per usual.

What in the fuck is the appeal of this game? It's one of the least creative stealth games I've played if my memory is correct. Everything is obviously laid out for you to seek out and execute there's no improvisation theres no need to pay attention when it's written out for you. You're not penalized for fucking up the mission and going in for a basic easy kill etc. How is this considered one of the better stealth games?

So I get myself Plutonium because when I was a babby I loved this game. I'd just frag and frag and frag with the KSG, having a blast making people mad in FFA lobbies and getting gud with the entire roster on Gun Game. It was great.

But something changed. I don't know what. It just came to me a few days ago playing this game. It sucks. At least now. Almost all the guns used are either Generic Assault Rifle with silencer, or if you're lucky generic Sub-Machine Gun with silencer. Those guns aren't fun to fight against or fight with. I never have fun just blindly shooting someone with a silenced full auto rifle. It's always more fun to slap them with a blast of buckshot or a slug or even a sniper rifle. As for fighting against them, it sucks. You can't - or more accurately never have the chance to - play mind games, dodge and weave, take advantage of movement and equipment to your advantage, use the map to your benefit, etc. You either kill them because you somehow got behind where they spawned and they didn't notice you so you killed them with their pants down. Or, you die to them because they're sat in some obscure corner of the map presumably laying a fucking egg.

What are some genuinely fun boss fights? How I determine if a boss fight is fun is if it has a difficult aspect to it but it's not annoyingly difficult, and the fight itself is cool. Daimon from Dragon's Dogma comes to mind. Assuming you're not cheesing him by stacking up on conquer periapts and killing him in like 10 seconds, the fight could go on for a while. You have his 1st form which he's flying all over the area while casting magic and you pretty much have to catch him if you're a melee class, and if you're ranged you have to dodge his magic. He'll also occasionally do this move where he sucks you in the middle of the area and he charges up, then you have to move away from him before he lets out a big attack, or if you're grappled onto him and attack him you can stun him and prevent him from doing the attack. Then onto his 2nd form where he's slower moving around but he does more magic shit and it does more damage. He does a move where a purple beam shoots out the mouth of his chest. He does this move where his body burns up and explodes, so if you're grappled onto him you'd take a lot of damage from that and also get burn damage. Oh and he still does the charge attack. He'll also keep doing smaller attacks that still do quite a bit of damage. A lot of boss fights in Dragon's Dogma are fun, like the Griffin, Living Armor (fuck fighting multiple of those niggers though), and Grigori are some of my favorites. Though Daimon in particular you really have to be on your feet and learn his attack patterns.

Anyone have any enjoyable recs for ps4 or Switch? I'm stuck without my pc for a few months and need something fun or interesting to play. Literally any genre just has to be interesting somehow be it story, atmosphere, or gameplay. Already own a majority of the exclusives for both consoles at least the more mainstream one so any obscure picks are welcome. Anything arcadey this or with longevity is a plus.

So this is sort of fucking with me. I found a great deal for Let’s Go Pikachu today, and considering this specific version is starting to get rare for whatever reason I decided to pick it up.

So I went ahead and played it not expecting much:

>reused assets from Go but touched up with nice texture work

>nice character animations

>get two pokemon to follow you (something that has been requested since the original yellow and heart gold)

>properly scaled Pokémon

>battles actually take place in the area you’re at

>faithful to the original while adding its own twist

>nice orchestra version of the original OST

Now here’s what’s fucking with me. This game is still a casualized, asset flip cash grab… and yet it is still a better game, has less bugs, looks nicer, and is actually closer to the next gen Pokemon game I wanted than fucking Sword and Shield.

Has anyone at Gamefreak talked about why SnS released on the state it did? Of course it was a financial success and Pokemon fans still ate it up, so I imagine they wouldn’t talk about it, but I find it absolutely astounding that it looks and plays so much worse than Let’s Go.

Think of a feature, then think of a game you think did it right. Example:

>open world

One of the things I liked most about New Vegas was the lay of the land. There was usually something interesting on the horizon that caught your eye and piqued your interest. It's also pretty neat when you have actually seen a lot of the landmarks there.

Yo, the final update for Terraria is dropping soon and I dont really have any bros to play with, so if you would like to chill just add me on discord. I dont really have other places where to look so might aswell give it a shot on my favourite site huh

Some guys decompiled Mario 64 completely and then made a port of the game that runs natively on PC. Pretty fuckin neato. If anyone wants to share the files here, please do. Otherwise it's just an interesting project to look at Nintendo fucking destroy

I might be misremembering but I swear when FF12 first came out and the years following it people always treated it like an "eh" game in the series. Like nobody really loved it or hated it. Was it because the following standalone Final Fantasy's were so shit it made this look good in comparison? Then Zodiac Age gets released and a lot of people actually got hyped for it.

Sorry to completely ruin the day of any anons who thought Hytale would could be what Minecraft couldn't be. But Riot games, THAT shitty company owned by the chinks, just bought Hypixel Studios, the ones who are making Hytale. Given Cubeworld's demise, I wonder if there is a curse preventing games from dethroning Minecraft.

Frontier Developments have quietly announced that a new game set in the Age of Sigmar setting has a possible release in 2023. Myself I am ambivalent about this, having been a collector of Warhammer Fantasy for a number of years. I am wondering what your thoughts are on this topic.

Saving,whether it's about saving scores or game data, has been a more or less vital part of videogames since near forever and some games have tried more unorthodox approaches to saves

>Koudelka

The default save system in the game involved your main character walking near holy water.Usually these save points were corrupted and required you to fight a boss to gain the right to use.Some of these bosses also gated significant story progressions behind them.

There were also Temporary save rooms that appeared quite often and were placed before boss encounters.

The interesting part is that if saved at specific times(mostly of the type of 1:11:11,2:22:22 etc), the game would add items and equipment if you loaded back.Most of those items broke the game,but others were surprisingly useless or mundane by the item standarts.

>Fear and Hunger

The save system seems somewhat tacked on,but the game also seems to be somewhat reliant on it in it's design of bosses.

Early in it's development the game didn't have save spots and required random drops to get the chance to save anywhere. Later on the dev put on a few beds, with the first save being free while every other one after that required a coin toss unless you beat the boss guarding it.It's inclusion was arbitrary and it somewhat undermined the purpose of making enemies punishing,but beatable without issue and removed a lot of the threat opponents provided.

In a later released Hard mode, saves were removed entirely and the later bosses were shown to be heavily reliant on RNG to not fuck you up your run.If a multi hit attack like a multi hit spell, a peck was aimed at you or multiple body parts decided to hit you,you were fucked.

BOF V Dragon Quarter:

On top of keeping track of the amount of saves and general efficiency, it also had you manage save tokens and also included a "SOL RESTORE" feature that allowed you to keep party EXP that could be assigned individually, as well as equipped items and stored items.

If one wanted to grind party EXP for NG+, one could park a save at the pre-last boss and constantly beat him to gain big amounts of Party EXP using the dragon mode quickly and efficiently allowing you to get everyone to a lategame level early and trivializing later encounters as well as fucking over the gimmick the bonus dungeon.

xbox event is streaming online at a bunch of places… so far most of it looks bad. and "vampire the masquerade bloodlines 2" graphics/art looks like its had a major downgrade (they look like sims). and lots of wamen + oh so deep walking simulators…. new yakuza (like a dragon) looks ok

I quit all Blizzard games after learning they were lubing their own assholes to be penetrated by China/Soros for cash.

Been playing Paladins and indie games like Bloons TD 6 since they don't appease to cocksuckers. I believe Paladins is even banned in China because they do not comply with their horseshit.

Anyways, bullshit aside, anyone know a good MMO to play that is made by patriots and high IQ masterminds? WoW has evolved into the perfect MMO for me compared to vanilla, just my personal opinion, but I mentioned why I had to let go of it.

A renaissance, a return to the peak of video games where 10-20 guys in a rented office could crank out a memorable and heartfelt game. We're in the dark years, the downward spiral right now. A shit vortex surrounds us but surely at some point we'll hit rock bottom and people will start over again and rebuild. Right? The SNES, PS1, PS2 and PC games of that era were clearly the peak of the intersection between technology and artistic integrity. I mean at some point everyone will get bored and video games will become "our thing" again. Surely.

1.In the case of fights: as soon as the VS Screen appears on stream, bets for an individual match shall be written in chat with the following format: "!bet (amount) (A,B) with A denoting the left side character and B denoting the right side character of that match.

2. Any other betting to be done, such as horse racing, gladitorial combat, or random banzai segments, will have their own betting screens and will be the same chat format "!bet (amount) (one of the multiple choice answers on screen)

3. Every week you will start with a clean slate of 1000 8bux, that will be added to your pocket(weekly wallet)

4. Any money you are left with by the end of tournament will be added to your bank (permanent balance) you can not withdraw from the bank, Alex Trebek forbids it.

I know it's the hot shit right now, but we don't need every other thread being about fucking corona-chan. Therefore I decided to make a cycle so you can discuss the ongoing effects of corona-chan and how it's effecting the video games industry. It'll probably die down in a week or two, but when it does I'm going to uncycle the thread, mainly because it'll just be dragging on after that.

In short this thread is for discussing the corona virus and minor instances like NoA getting corona and the feds celebrating it, rather than major instances like E3 being cancelled which deserve their own thread.

The new javascript rewrite for posting is quite intensive and consists of rewriting the thread templates for tinyboard in javascript. Probably the reason it was initially setup so poorly is because the original javascript programmer didnt want to rewrite the templates. Anyways, it is almost done.

Plain text post templates -> Done

Multiple image template -> Done

Spoiler images -> Done

Mp4/webm templates -> Not done

Embeds -> Not done

Still chipping away at this and will hopefully have it fixed up in the next couple days.

Regarding the /v/ BO position, I am not super confident in the emails I got inquiring about it. Until a good candidate comes along, I plan to personally take care of the responsibilities in the interim. The current remaining /v/ vols are doing a good job. I have no plan to change the vol team or board rules.

Going to anchor this thread in a few hours, so dont get too attached to it.

Apparently Nintendo got hit with a big data Breach, double check your account for weird sign-ins or payments. Enable 2FA if you can on your account just to be safe. Seems from reports changing passwords doesnt help. They probably have access to a password dump file from one exploit or another, so they will still have your password after you change it wherever its getting leaked.

>horrible optimization despite being bought out by a trillion-dollar company

Can someone explain to me how this because the de facto autism lego blocks game even though it's literally the worst, least autistic implementation of the concept? Zachtronics should have sued for the IP.

GAB.COM SHADOW BANNED ME A THIRD TIME. I TESTED IT. I POSTED CONVERSATION (KEEP IN MIND, I DID NOT POST OR LINK TO ANYONE USING FOOTAGE OF THE LEAKS, ONLY VIDEOS THAT HAD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT IT) SO STILL VERY WELL WITHIN FAIR USE TERRITORY, EVEN BEYOND DEEP INTO THE SAFE ZONE, AND GAB.COM SHADOW BANNED ME SIMPLY FOR TALKING ABOUT THE LAST OF US 2!

My original account was

@BroDoYouEvenDrift

GAB.COM SHADOW BANNED ME THREE TIMES. GAB.COM IS NOT PRO-FREEDOM OF SPEECH

THIS IS ACTIVE CENSORSHIP GOES AGAINST ALL THEY CLAIM THEY STAND FOR.

THIS IS ALL I SAID:

I am possibly suspicious, and have a theory that my account may have been disappeared simply because I mentioned Th3 L45T 0F U5 2 l33k discussion videos from yutub mrH and y0ngyeah. I did give ample sp0ilr warning. Those were some of the last things I posted before my account suddenly was deleted with no warning or reason given. It's just a theory. I'm going to test it out, and repost all the same things I did again. keep in mind, people are legally allowed to talk about things that they heard about, especially if it's just about some video game. I didn't even post any of the released l33ked f00tage, and I did not link to videos that contained any of it either. yutub is also censoring and shutting down and striking accounts for discussions they are legally allowed to talk about, and those accounts did not even play any of the footage, so the strikes are invalid and could cause a l4wsoot since they didn't actually break copyR1TE I will be reposting this information again in all my favorite videogame related gab groups. If my g4b dot com acoont disappears again mysteriously for no reason at all… You know why this time. This would confirm that to me.

Sp01lr W4rn1ng:

supposedly:

SUPPOSEDLY, this is what happens.

SUPPOSEDLY.

>nootydoog let aneeda sarkeezan work on the game the l4st 0f u5 TOO

>someone l3333kd the g4mz pl0t

>apparently it's cucked to hell just like nustarwars and nuterminator

>in the game you are forced to play as an lgbtBBQ propaganda agenda (I don't care who you take to your bedroom but I am DISGUSTED by forced propaganda that is shoehorned into video games)

>you are forced to play as the enemy character who just coincidentally happens to be a l3ft ag3nd4 character, and then KILL YOUR OWN FAVORITE MAIN CHARACTERS FROM THE FIRST GAME

>just like in starwars, your favorite hero and protagonist supposedly dies, but YOU have to kill them, because the game forces you, for no reason.

SUPPOSEDLY. I can not confirm this.

In my honest opinion, I am relieved because saved a boat load of money since I'm not buying the game or a new console now. That's just my opinion, I suggest everyone make up their own opinions and do their own research.

Seems very opportune that Geoff and iam8bit are involved after their announcements of no e3 involvement and that was before the coronavirus pandemic shut e3 down. Will this takedown e3 or will be like a steam summer sale where only something that interests you catches your eye and you just ignore the rest of the shovelware?

Assuming you get an unlimited supply of food and water. Come on we all know you have those video game places you would live at for the rest of your life but then you get depressed knowing you can't, so post those places. As you can see I like the grassy/beach setting, generic choices I know. Majula might be the odd one out but it's still calm and comfy even if an area right next to it is full of danger. Also funnily enough the volcano in Mario Sunshine is called "Corona Mountain".

The game is out in three days, and I want to thank FFVII for being an excellent decoy and taking all the attention from the Ethics Department so this game could be made without censoring the delicious leotards worn by Angela and Riesz.

Also, a new interview with the producers ends with them saying they want to do a Legend of Mana remake after this.

Haven't seen one of these for weeks, thread for discussing what you're thinking about

Personally I've been using a RX Vega for a while now and I've been pretty satisfied with it but I'm pretty sure that my old CPU (Intel i5 4430) is bottle necking it and I'm looking for a replacement for it and looking to get a new motherboard as well since my current (h81m-hd3) one is pretty old as well.
